Add backwards compatibility tests for automation

Opened this issue a year ago · 3 comments

Add backwards compatibility tests for the plugin to automate end-to-end upgrade paths for faster releases.
Developer documentation for implementing bwc tests and hooking them to CI: https://github.com/opensearch-project/opensearch-plugins/blob/main/TESTING.md#backwards-compatibility-testing

This would include the BWC tests on both plugin level and distribution bundle level.

plan to target for 2.15

Can we get some traction on this issue? This BWC tests request would be a future release blocker.

@eirsep @sbcd90 Do we have a plan to onboard to this distribution level BWC test? We are planning to add BWC tests as mandatory exit criteria in future releases.
